Here at Fressingfield Primary School we take pride in setting ourselves ambitious challenges and being resilient enough to reach them. Today was no exception as the children in Yangtze Class bravely took on The Brussels Sprout Challenge!
Now, there are some children who delight in Brussels Sprouts and look forward to eating great piles of them at this time of year. And there are others who fear them beyond measure; some for whom the very words ‘Brussels’ and ‘Sprouts’ are enough to bring out goose bumps and a cold sweat. Well, no matter their predilections, none were allowed to avoid the Brussels Sprout Challenge.
As you can imagine, some were devoured and relished; others were washed down with noses held and gallons of squash. The uniting factor though was the children’s bravery and determination. So fervent in fact was the competition, that every last sprout was eaten! An incredible achievement!
Mrs Wright, watching on, decided she would teach with the windows open this afternoon!
We would like to thank Mrs Tuthill and Mrs Tooley for cooking another wonderful Christmas Dinner today, and all our staff who prepared, served, supported and tidied. Thank you all.
